If you're playing the piano, you might know one of the following problems:
- You're playing the SAME pieces for months ❌
- Your technique does not develop ❌
- and you make the same mistakes over and over again. ❌
What happens is that you become very frustrated. You experience pain in your hands and arms after you practice. If you play for someone your family, you are extremely nervous and if you play a concert, you have black outs and can't deliver what you've initially practiced.
Many pianists believe that repeating passages and playing through pieces within the practice time will actually improve the playing. They are stressed, become tense and can never move to new pieces.
The key problem here is NOT that you don't have enough time. But that you're lacking a good foundation for your technique. What does that mean?You have to be able to move your body in the right way in order to create the sounds you want. --> And you have to have a clear imagination of what you want in order to move in the right way, which will bring you closer to YOUR IMAGINATION.Your brain actually remembers everything you have practiced. And if you simply repeat the passages which are not working, you'll also repeat the wrong execution. Which actually brings you further away from your goals.
Now: If you don't have a system, you'll always have the feeling that you are lacking time. Or that the pieces are too difficult for you. You mess up the piece all the time. You think that you are not good enough and if you don’t tackle this problem, this means that you won’t be able to get into university if you plan to become a professional pianist or that you simply lose motivation and stop playing…
What you need to do instead is to
- first identify how you want to play the piece. And work out your perfect imagination. ✅
- then to work on the realization of that, to really figure out which steps you need to take in which order and to use your time in the best possible way ✅
- to implement technical tools for each problem, which help you to make your fingers stronger, more independent and express what you actually want ✅
- to learn the rules for interpretation in each style, like vocabulary and grammar for a new language ✅
and to find a mechanism that will help you to control your results as well as performing for friends and family on a regular basis. ✅
I've worked through that with Peter, for example, who, when he started working with me, was very nervous when he was playing for others, BECAUSE of the lack of clear imagination, technique and control. But, after working through this system, he can now play through Beethoven's Sonatas or Schumann's Davidsbündlertänze with a lot of confidence.🔥🔥🔥

Which results can you realistically achieve?
The piano mastery system is the first approach that works for both professional and non-professional pianists. Having collected different methods from the German and Russian school, combined with a lot of experience on stage, it's divided into the mental, physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of piano practice.
In our free piano lesson, we will analyze exactly where you are at point A and how we will get you to point B with the least possible resistance.
